4 reasons to find yourself a sweet treat for better rest & relaxation!
Cannabis edibles have become a favorite for many, especially those looking for a smoke-free way to enjoy the benefits of marijuana. For individuals with certain medical conditions, edibles may be the only suitable option. From gummies and candies to baked treats like brownies and cookies—even infused beverages like root beer—there’s a wide range of tasty choices. These products are typically made with cannaoil, cannabutter, or concentrated cannabis extracts. Beyond their convenience and variety, edibles also offer several potential health benefits.
In Thailand, cannabis edibles are subject to specific legal regulations. While the country decriminalized cannabis in 2022, allowing adults over 20 to consume it, edibles must contain less than 0.2% THC to be considered legal. Despite this restriction, many dispensaries and cafes offer products exceeding this limit, operating in a legal gray area. It’s essential for consumers to stay informed about the evolving regulations and exercise caution when purchasing and consuming cannabis edibles in Thailand.
While individual tolerance to edibles can vary, they typically take between 45 minutes to 2 hours to kick in, with effects lasting up to 8 hours. Liquid edibles tend to act faster and wear off a bit sooner. Despite the wait, these cannabis-infused products come with a range of notable benefits.
1. Longer-Lasting Effects for Deeper Rest
Unlike smoking or vaping, edibles are metabolized more slowly by your body. This results in a gradual onset and extended duration of effects—often lasting 6–8 hours or more. That means you’re not just falling asleep faster, but staying asleep longer, which is especially helpful if you deal with nighttime wakeups or restlessness.
2. No Coughs, Just Smooth Relief
Inhaling cannabis can sometimes irritate the throat or lungs, which isn’t ideal before bed. Edibles, on the other hand, are gentler on your body—no coughing fits or smoke clouds. You get the therapeutic benefits without any of the harshness, making for a more comfortable and relaxing wind-down routine.
3. Reduced Anxiety & Nausea
Certain cannabis compounds, especially THC and CBD, can help ease stress and quiet racing thoughts, which is a common reason people struggle to fall asleep. Edibles give your body time to relax and your mind a chance to power down, making it easier to drift off naturally. Use edibles to reduce nausea. The ability to relieve nausea has been scientifically proven, just like other forms of medical marijuana. Due to the fact that edibles take longer to take effect than marijuana joints, they may not be capable of reducing nausea and unanticipated episodes. These products should not be consumed if you are experiencing nausea from something.
4. Customizable Dosage for Consistent Results
With edibles, it’s easier to measure and control your dose, which means you can find the sweet spot that helps you chill without feeling overly groggy the next day. Whether you need a microdose to relax or a bit more for deeper sedation, edibles offer precise, predictable effects when dosed properly.
